A manhunt in the woods near the Saratoga Springs train station has ended without a catch, but the search in that area has been terminated, the Saratoga County Sheriff Deputies communications office said.
The pursuit began when a white man, about six feet tall, wearing black pants and a black T-shirt ran from investigators who were serving warrants on him. The communications office did not have his name or what warrants were out against him. He has a full-sleeve of tattoos on his left arm and other tattoos on the right.
He was not considered dangerous, and therefore sheriff patrols parked along the edges of the woods in locations up and down West Avenue, in the train station lot, and along Washington and Church streets. This, according to radio calls over the scanner. They did not stop or divert traffic.
Sgt. Kevin Ferris in street clothes was the drone pilot for well over an hour as deputies scanned the woods between Station Lane, West Avenue, Washington Street and the train tracks. Scanner traffic at about 11:45 a.m. said a second drone would be arriving. The two would keep different altitudes to avoid crashes.
This is a developing story, and there will be updates as we get them.
